Chapter 78: Chapter 78: Unconditionally Agreeing to Do One Thing

Hearing Evelyn quickly back down, Caden Lockwood lowered his dark eyes, his lips pressed into a straight line, devoid of any smile.

Evelyn’s entire body was on edge, watching Caden warily, afraid he might take further action.

She felt so wronged!

Even if he didn’t touch her last night, why sleep on the same bed with her?

She was asleep yesterday; he could have just woken her up!

But these words, she didn’t dare to speak.

In his eyes, not touching her was already a kindness; if she dared to complain, it would surely completely anger him.

What would happen next was truly unpredictable.

"Uncle, I know you’re a good person!" She revealed a light smile, trying to appear well-behaved and sensible, yet her amber eyes were brimming with undisguisable terror.

Taking a deep breath quietly, she continued, "You’re the best person in the whole world! Knowing you is the greatest blessing of my life! I believe you would never take advantage of others or make things difficult."

She flattered him, yet clearly did not believe him, her body trembling slightly, on guard and ready to resist at any moment.

"If I’m such a good person, being with me willingly wouldn’t be a loss, would it?" he said a line that would haunt her for three lifetimes.

"I..." Her lips twitched awkwardly, "We... hehe... there’s no need for us to be together without feelings! Besides, Uncle, you’re getting married! Eleanor Keaton, she’s your fiancée!"

Hearing this, a deep cold light flashed in Caden Lockwood’s eyes.

He brushed Evelyn’s cheek with his thumb, leaned in, and said deeply, "I’ll say it one last time, she’s not my fiancée."

"But..." Evelyn was puzzled, "She said that this weekend, you two..."

"It bothers you?" Caden raised an eyebrow, "Having a fiancée makes you conflicted and sad?"

"I’m not conflicted or sad at all!" Evelyn shouted defiantly.

Seeing the ambiguous smile on his face, she could only avert her eyes, speaking softly, "Uncle, get up first! I’ll go... make you breakfast?"

She hoped to use food to placate him first.

Taking a deep breath, Caden Lockwood stared intensely at Evelyn’s face, refusing, "Then how do we settle accounts for just now?"

"I’ve already apologized!" Evelyn said helplessly, frowning, her little face full of grievance, "At worst, you can throw a pillow at me too, or scold me thoroughly, okay?"

He focused on her, asking indifferently, "What if I want a different form of compensation?"

Her heart leapt to her throat as she asked lightly, "What form?"

"I order you to do one thing, and you must agree." Caden said deeply.

"What thing?" Evelyn asked cautiously, "How could I agree to just anything? If you want me to commit arson or murder, should I do that too?"

He snorted coldly, "Of course, it won’t be arson or murder."

She shot him a glare, too angry to speak with him.

So, if he asked her to spend a night with him, must she agree too?

This was obviously a trap, and she wouldn’t agree to it!

"In any case, no!" She put on an expression as if going to the gallows, "You can hit back, scold back, but anything else, not even a bit more!"

"You won’t even agree to just take a photo with me?" Caden raised an eyebrow, "Then I’ll hit back, along with that last slap, and hit back altogether." His tone was vicious.
